Trump cheated on his SAT by paying someone to take it for him, according to Mary Trum

This thread is awesome; I love it when Trump triggers the loons on the left. I can't wait until that night the PHONY media announces that Biden has been trounced and Trump is re-elected.
 
it's called school choice.
Many cities public schools are awful - allowing a "choice" of substandard public schools is no choice at all

...and getting worse by losing money. I support "school choice", but our public schools need better funding with a goal to maximize the potential of every American student. It's better to have a competent HS graduate becoming a solid taxpayer than an ignorant dumbass costing $30K/year in prison or on welfare.

It's not always about funding. Baltimore ( where i come from) has a ton of money pumped in by the state.
Yet students at like 13 grade schools -not one of them in the 5th grade can do grade level math.

It's a culture of failure, despite mentoring etc. it's very sad to see kids futures flushed

Agreed it's not always funding, but since all public schools only see about 8% Federal funding and the remainder in State and, mostly, county/city funds, the primary problem is funding. Management would be an excellent #2 problem.

Education is primarily a local purview.
When you have all that money pumped into public schools ( and not all schools -but too many minority city schools)
and the results are nada mo' money isn't going to help.

There has to be accountability, but teachers unions wont have it

What makes the culture of success, then? I bet money is the biggest factor. Here's a list of 100 top-performing high schools from around the country, they're doing something right.

Thanks for agreeing on funding problems and management, but disagreed on moving goalposts.

that's unwieldly for me to analyze at. But i see magnet and charter schools listed. It aint the money.

It's a culture of learning..what was that movie? kids have to want to learn, and you do that with innovative
and mentrship ( especially for kids in single parent families).

I was taught chess at 5 years old. It stayed with me a lifetime
 
Are you sure you weren't sitting with the students in that Spec. Ed. class and not at the big desk?
I often sit with the students...you're not familiar with how Special ed works, are you? My teacher's desk was big, as a matter of fact...I still have it...my kids helped build it in shop/industrial arts class one year....I brought it home...along with the bookshelves they made....when I retired;) They need to bring shop and home ec classes back...
 
Yes. He's rich and getting richer by being President but lost a chunk due to the pandemic...if only he'd acted sooner, eh?

He's not as rich as he claims, but he's still leaps and bounds richer than anyone on this forum.

Donald Trump, who's worth an estimated $2.1 billion, is the first billionaire in history to serve as president of the United States.

The president's fortune has taken a roughly $1 billion hit due to the coronavirus pandemic's impact on industries like hospitality and commercial real estate.


That money he lost will come back in a year or two along with everyone else's 401ks and investments. I doubled down on my 401k and riding it out.
I think his debt is astronomical. I believe it’s one of the things he’s hiding.

Priceless!
 
NEVER TOOK THE SAT, DID YOU??

PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW THAT CAN EVEN HAPPEN.

YOU HAVE TO IDENTIFY YOURSELF, AND THEN ENTER A CLOSED ROOM UNDER CLOSE SUPERVISION.


YOU FUCKING IDIOTS FALL FOR EVERY TDS LIE THAT COMES DOWN THE PIKE...THIS ONE FROM THE TRUMP FAMILY OUTCAST...

YOUR IDIOCY PROVES YOU DON'T KNOW SHIT ABIOUT ANYTHING..JUST LIKE THE MORONIC "NEIL YOUNG" THREAD....


BUNCHA FUCKING DUNCES....

You're a dumbass Kool Aid guzzler.

With enough money you can pay a test proxy to look the other way.

You can disguise someone to look enough like you to fool someone who doesn't know you.

You can have a fake ID made with the picture of the person taking the test for you next to your name, etc.

How fucking dull-witted are you, anyway???

Could be but I have no doubt he's not "dead broke" and will live out the rest of his life Tweeting from his gold plated toilet in Trump Tower.
